Prestigious New York City Employee Rights Attorneys Protect Your Professional Reputation After a Wrongful Termination

Attorneys taking a stand against unlawful
firings

Losing
your job is never easy. It is even more
challenging when you have done your job well
and you are wrongfully terminated. Although
most terminations are not wrongful, the ones
that are generally come with significant
monetary damages for the plaintiff that
suffered. Our New York City employee rights
attorneys at
Hepworth, Gershbaum & Roth, PLLC
are here to help you through the aftermath
of getting wrongfully terminated. Our goal
is to quickly recover the compensation you
deserve to make you whole and get you
through your transition between employers.

What is a wrongful termination in New York

New York
is an “at will” employment state. That means
employers can basically terminate employees
for any reason, as long as it is not an
illegal one. Generally, you must either have
an employment contract or be fired on a
discriminatory premise in order to have an
actionable lawsuit for wrongful termination.
Employment contracts have a good faith
clause that must be met to support a company
terminating an employee. Our New York City
wrongful
termination attorneys put the
pressure on your past employer to prove that
the firing was in good faith. Firings based
on a discriminatory purpose are often more
challenging to prove because uncovering
evidence admissible in court is more
difficult to uncover.

termination lawsuit in New York
